The purpose of the Maresfield Historical Society is to promote and explore the heritage of the village and surrounding area with regular talks, displays, guided walks, research projects, liaison with the local school and maintenance of an archive of local material.

​

We meet about nine times a year, usually on a Tuesday in Maresfield Village Hall, and our events are open to both members and non-members of the Society. We are a small and enthusiastic group and have enjoyed talks on a range of topics. Our  programme for 2025 is as follows:​

​​

Tuesday 25 March

A talk by Chris Horlock on Sussex Ruins, Relics and Remains

The MHS welcomes back Chris for what should be a very interesting talk. 8pm in the Village Hall. Free to Maresfield Historical Society members, £3 for non-members.

 

Tuesday 22 April

A talk by Helen Poole on Elizabethan Sussex

Helen makes a welcome return to tell us about our own county of Sussex in Elizabethan times. 8pm in the Village Hall. Free to Maresfield Historical Society members, £3 for non-members.​

 

​​All talks last approximately 1 hour, followed by tea and biscuits.

​

Annual membership of the Society costs £15 per family and £10 per individual.

Non-members, who are always very welcome, pay £3 per visit.
